Salad with Ruby Red Vinaigrette

I know you hate to waste food as much as I do and when fruit and veggies are approaching their end stages I get creative. Such is the case with making the Ruby Red Grapefruit Syrup which can be used to make this vinaigrette or the coctails I will share with you later this evening. Salad with Ruby Red VinaigretteYou can add this vinaigrette to any favorite salad. As in the one pictured above:Mix in a tablespoon of the vinaigrette with 2 peeled sectioned and cross cut oranges and bunch of seedless halved red grapes. Mix the remaining vinaigrette in a bowl with salad greens. Plate the greens and fruit with diced ham and deviled eggs. Sprinkle crumbled goat cheese over all.
